Lester,
I know what you are talking about. That would be cycling to Canada, and taking the ferry to AK. If you googlemap the trip by bike it shows a ferry up the Pacific ocean. If you request to do it by car, it shows a ferry that goes through a network of islands in a narrow waterway that looked like it was inland to me. You are right.
Thanks,
Cherri

I'd probably say you didn't drive to AK. You covered more miles on water than on 4 wheels. Still an awesome trip.

I guess if you're looking for some good braggin' words, you could go with "I rode my bike the length of Vancouver Island, then took the ferry to Ketchikan.

Oh, and the Vancouver Island bike ride would end at Port Hardy, which is near Fort Rupert. Prince Rupert is further up on the mainland.
